LOOK: Call for Peru LIVE: at what time and which players will be chosen by Reynoso
All that is known to date are rumors, information in the hallway, sponsor conferences and, above all, a mixture of faith and pessimism that can be heard for miles.
On Thursday we saw him: he seemed calm, smiling but speechless, a classic by Juan Reynoso, while he greeted the journalists and the general public who were present at an activation at the Videna facilities, since it was made official that Sky Peru Airline as its new sponsor.
What’s new? Questions regarding everything. Here we try to solve five, whose main focus seems to be who will be the 9 starter of the Blanquirroja in Asunción, 5:30 pm Peruvian time.
1. Will Paolo Guerrero be the 9th starter for the national team due to Lapadula’s injury?
It is the first option. The last 48 hours the rumor of his presence moved, following the declaration of the president of LDU, Isaac Álvarez: “We have not yet officially received the reservation letter for Paolo Guerrero”, he affirmed in dialogue with RPP Deportes and specified that if receive the request for the 39-year-old striker will give him all the facilities. However, that situation changed in hours, since this newspaper contacted the President of the LDU Football Commission, Esteban Paz, who confirmed that the letter of summons by Paolo Guerrero had already arrived. “If they already sent us the communication by Paolo Guerrero on behalf of the Peruvian Football Federation,” he sentenced.
Paolo has played 27 games this 2023, almost triple the number he played for Avaí in the Brasileirao last year (10). That, added to his individual hierarchy, the recognition of Reynoso, make him the main candidate to play. There is, however, another real alternative: that André Carrillo might be the center forward, accompanied by Reyna on one side, Flores on the other. And behind, as second striker, Christofer Gonzales. Everything will begin to clear from this Friday.

2. Who would be the surprises?
There are no mysteries: by present in the Betsson League 1, the names of Joao Grimaldo, Piero Quispe and Bryan Reyna appear as the main replacement cards -perhaps the only ones- that the Peruvian coach would offer on this date. Regarding foreign footballers, the former Cristal Jesús Castillo midfielder would be one of the surprises, since his club Gil Vicente made it official that the summons letter arrived at his offices. Another who would return to a list of Qualifiers would be Raúl Ruidíaz, criticized by the fans for his lack of efficiency in the national team (one goal in five years as called up) but who has enjoyed Reynoso’s absolute confidence since 2009, when he made him debut in the ‘OR’.
What did Agustín Lozano say regarding the list and what’s to come? “Because of the work that we have been seeing through Juan Máximo Reynoso, we are convinced and hope that the results will be encouraging. We have been closely following all the work, all the preparation matches and there is confidence that the results will be favorable. We also trust in the dedication of the players, the commitment of each one of them and we must give positive energy so that Juan and his players can live up to the goals that Peru needs to be achieved”. Politics, politics and more politics.

3. Who will be the referees of the first double date?
The first game will be on September 7 once morest the Guarani and the appointed judge is the Uruguayan Andrés Matonte (35 years old) who participated in the last World Cup. Likewise, it will be the first time that the referee directs a bicolor game and the third time with the Paraguayans. His compatriots Nicolás Tarán and Martín Soppi will accompany him as assistants and Javier José Burgos will be the fourth official. Meanwhile, in the VAR the responsibility will be carried by Leondán González.
After said match, the Peruvian team will face Brazil on September 12 at the National Stadium and the Argentine Fernando Rapallini will be the main judge. He also had a presence in Qatar 2022 and with the Peruvian team he has participated twice.

4. What will the trip from Peru to Paraguay be like?
The team manager, Antonio García Pye, referred to the arrival date and the place where Juan Reynoso’s team will stay. “For the trip to Paraguay, we saw a possibility to stay in Foz de Iguazú (Brazilian side), which is very close to Ciudad del Este, and, although the distance is small, that crossing is complicated by the amount of transportation of load there is That is why we have chosen to stay on the Paraguayan side, ”he commented to Radio Ovación.
Likewise, the selection manager continued to tell regarding the date of travel to Paraguay. “The intention is to travel by charter on the 5th (September) in the followingnoon to arrive for dinner and sleep. The slogan will be to train at the stadium on the 6th, the game is on the 7th and, following dinner, return to Lima to continue working with a view to the clash once morest Brazil”, added the ‘Bicolor’ manager. Regarding the concentration hotel, Antonio stated: “We have two hotels on file and we will make a decision by Monday at the latest. We are evaluating the possibility of closing it only for the National Team, but we will see if that is possible ”, he declared.
However, at the media level, the information spread that Antonio García Pye would not continue as Selection Manager and would even already have a replacement. Given this, the president of the Peruvian Football Federation spoke regarding it.
“Antonio is a person I will always be grateful for for everything he has given over the years and for everything he has been giving. I am not aware at this time that there is any term of contract, I have just arrived from a trip and I have not discussed this issue with the general secretary, but I only have words of gratitude for all that Antonio has done, has been doing and I am sure that it will. Therefore, I cannot express myself in any other way, since these are functions that do not concern me, ”he added.
“The idea is that all of us who contribute to the national team continue, but in terms of human resources and personal selection it is not my responsibility and it is not something that concerns me as president. That is an administrative issue and surely the general secretary will notify me or notify the board of directors,” Lozano said.

5. Does the FPF have new sponsors? How much has Videna changed since Russia 2018?
Yes. For this process, the FPF has changed almost all its sponsorships, some with contracts that favor them more and better in different aspects. Example: Marathon left and now wears adidas; Movistar left and now it is Claro; Coca Cola is gone and Big Cola entered; Latam withdrew the sponsorship and has now signed Sky. They kept Cerveza Cristal (now + TaDa) and Te Apuesta.
In the sporting part, let’s say, the FIFA ranking also changed: in the run-up to the 2018 World Cup in Russia, the team reached 10th place. Today we are in 21st place, according to the latest position table of the highest entity in world football.
What has not changed is the disposition of this group, a team that trains almost 8 together. This was said by Juan Reynoso in the first interview with DT following his appointment as coach:
—You said that you have received messages from a select few. Did any surprise you?
Yes, the unconditional character of the players, that is, the truth is that those I have spoken to have opened up to me and the team. That’s ok. It is a sign that the group, their group, is united, everyone thinks the same and beyond some saying of someone, the selection kills them. Today it is clear to me that beyond everything is the national team and that must be taken advantage of.
Within the framework of the celebrations for its 101st anniversary, the Peruvian Football Federation (FPF) announced that SKY, the low-cost airline, joins the family of sponsors that accompanies LaBicolor in all its categories: men’s, women’s and minors.
And it is that, during the signing of the agreement, Agustín Lozano, president of the FPF, thanked the trust and contribution of companies like SKY that are committed to putting on the LaBicolor shirt, the brand most loved by all Peruvians. “This announcement coincides with our 101 years of creation, which makes it especially important. We are only two weeks away from starting new Qualifiers and for this, we have strengthened alliances and built new ties with whom we will join efforts to offer a quality and increasingly attractive product ”, he expressed in La Videna.
Let’s walk the dream together! ????

Finally, José Raúl Vargas, general manager of SKY in Peru, added: “We are very happy to once once more become the official airline of the National Team and put ourselves at your service until 2026. In our years flying in Peru, we have managed to transport dreams of millions of people and now it will be an honor to have on board our fleet of planes the dreams and hopes of the entire country. This alliance is very important for us, ”he sentenced.
The current coach of Vélez Sarsfield spoke exclusively with DT, where he recalled his time in Peru and might not avoid referring to Christian Cueva’s news.
